Who is Jim LeRose:
My name is Jim LeRose and today I am celebrating over two decades as a Logistics Solutions provider in the NYC metro area. I spent 20 years with Pitney Bowes Distribution Solutions and am now a principal at Agile Network. Simply put, my passion is saving my customers money on transportation costs.
Who is Agile?
Agile NYC Metro is part of the Agile Network, an organization of transportation and logistics experts each with over 20 years of experience in our industry who focus on integrating automated shipping solutions with ERP systems such as SAP, Oracle, JD Edwards, etc. Agile supports over 1,000 customers throughout North America and Europe and that makes them the leader in our industry. Agiles solutions span multiple industries such as; manufacturing, distribution and financial services. The post office says “if it fits it ships”, we say, “if you ship, you need Agile”.
How can we help you lower transportation costs?
- Super Auditing: Agile/ICC automatically combine actual carrier invoice data for LTL/TL & UPS/FedEx with your shipment history data. This is a new level of audit that can save an additional 2 – 5% over standard auditing services. As you already know LTL invoicing is notoriously off, but did you know that between 10 – 15% of the time UPS & FedEx invoices don’t match expected charges? This causes all sorts of problems notwithstanding increasing transportation costs!Benefit to you: 2 – 5% transportation cost reduction vs. conventional auditing service
- Optimization: Technology that automatically compares TL/LTL/ CWT/MWT/UPS/FedEx/USPS and others and pre-assigns routing instructions so your customers can take the negotiated rates ICC gets for them and optimize the savings! This can add another 5 – 10% of savings.Benefit to you: 8 – 15% reduction in transportation costs vs. employee routing
- Multi-Carrier Shipping Technology: Have you noticed? FedEx and UPS are in the process of cornering the LTL market using their own implemented shipping systems to do it and that’s bad for you. Agile/ICC now offer multi-carrier shipping solutions for UPS, FedEx, LTL, TL and virtually ever other mode/carrier – and in many cases this solution will be provided without upfront costs to your prospect/customer. This means you can eliminate UPS Worldships and FedEx Ship Manager shipping systems, knock out the FedEx and UPS Freight duopoly and get /retain business. The Agile solution has all the rates for all the carriers without the need to update them manually or change fuel surcharges every week!Benefits to you: 5 – 10% reduction in transportation costs vs. utilizing carrier provided systems
